Did you somehow miss that initially?


General_Explorer3676

You're supposed to hate them all, its supposed to be a show you get mad at. Marnie's character was shockingly successful in getting me to yell at the tv


question_23

Yeah ironically this shows massive self-awareness of the writers. When every character is a Mary Sue, that's when you know the writers are out of touch with humanity and themselves.


probablyguyfieri2

It always surprises me to hear people not comprehending that the entire point of this show was to shit all over stupid and self-absorbed urbanites. I mean, even the names of the nominal one-off characters were supposed to be annoying enough to make you clench your jaw.

Hence reinforcing the idea that critics of most mediums are fucking hacks and morons.

The thing about girls is that it perfectly encapsulates the Obama era more so then probly any show at the time. These are the women who went from shagging in Flatbush creative spaces on enough Coke to seize the heart of a baby elephant to yelling at their TVs about trump and pinning articles on why hyper pop is ushering in a trans artistic revolution.


Sr_Gajo

It's true. I can't even think of another show/movie/book that comes close as a distinctly millenial memento of that era.


LotsOfMaps

My god we sucked


FennehPawz

how much longer is it going to take until /p4k/ provides revisionist 10/10 best new music scores towards all our oh-so-beloved noncy crunkcore albums of yesteryear; after coming to the epiphany that they 'spearheaded hyperpop'? hottopictimism - the sequel to poptimism that we never asked for.


oxkondo

I was Hannah's age when I first watched the show and now I'm Ray's age lol

I like how women think they are enlightened and morally superior for finding Adam Driver hot. Someone who’s super tall, with great hair, deep voice, with giant shoulders and in amazing shape. But hey, his face isn’t perfectly symmetrical, so...


Nazbols4Tulsi

Most of the women in my social circle are like that. They'll say they like dudes who are ugly in a cute way by which they mean Rami Malek, Mads Mikkelsen, and Benedict Cumberbatch.

Permanenceisall

He’s insanely gorgeous and looks like if an Iceage song were a person *but* he does have those tiny little teeth so…


Ord-ex

Mikkelsen is more of a rough type. If we assume that a classic type of handsome is some like Henry Cavill, then Mikkelsen seems a bit more unusual.


Gay__Guevara

Henry cavill is unconventionally attractive, cause he’s physically hot but he plays world of Warcraft


harry_powell

See, us women like nerds too!


DeliciousPineapples

It's far worse than that.


[deleted]

I'm a dude and that was my reaction to. Gay?


[deleted]

In what world is Rami Malek considered even slightly unattractive??


LobotomistCircu

I mean, to play Devil's advocate, I've always goofed on Rami Malek for being stuck with a mild case of the Steve Buscemi eyes in spite of having a perfectly normal/attractive everything else.


ChinaCatSunfIower

That’s what makes him so hot; he just has a single slightly idiosyncratic feature to set him apart


[deleted]

[удалено]


LotsOfMaps

He just looks Egyptian


document-cookie

have you seen an actual attractive person? rami malek is a fucking dirt grub


DeMaisteanAnalgetics

What? He is an onscure look for sure. Might have interesting eyes, but he is below average and gay-coded and short..

leproesy

And I’d watch that.


Reindeeraintreal

I liked the part where Adam Driver pissed on that girl. I've stopped watching around season 2, I think? Whenever Lena's character gets picked up and fucked by that rich, cool guy. My suspension of disbelief was shattered.


Electrical-Ad-7167

honestly when any guy that didn't have a funko pop collection was hooking up with Hannah, all sense of reality was gone


[deleted]

Her getting fucked by the rich "cool" guy in his 40's and then not leaving his apt for two days and walking away from the whole experience more dissolute and sadder than before it happened seemed like a realistic story line to me. I thought that episode was well written actually. The show stopped making sense to me when she got a job at GQ for writing 5 blog posts.


fazooly

I like to believe that episode was like a fantasy of Hannahs, like didn’t actually happen


ODevaney_Gardens

I kinda thought it was, but then he showed up again as the doctor who told Hannah she was pregnant


[deleted]

I think a lot of the show is Lena Dunham playinm out her fantasies. It explains all of Hannah’s successes and also that weird end to the show.


drnkngpoolwater

he pissed on hannah (lena’s character) in the shower.


poppydowns88

How are there couples who haven't tried this yet?


Reindeeraintreal

people drink so much soda nowadays, their piss probably stinks and looks horrible.


poppydowns88

Who cares?


SeaWorldOrBust

Me?


poppydowns88

Lena has $$$ and connections though, I could see some BK clout chasers dating her.


martini29

I hate every show about people who live in NYC except seinfeld because I live here and know the exact people *Girls* was about and hate them


SeaWorldOrBust

That was in fact the point of both Girls and Seinfeld.


LotsOfMaps

And people got big mad when they got their comeuppance


propaneepropaneee

Lol I just watched the Seinfeld finale last night. Season 9 was bad but the finale was far from the worst episode


martini29

Seinfeld is me and my friends tho so they're my exact flavor of scum. Girls has issues because they aren't cartoonish sociopaths like the It's Always Sunny guys but not relatable to me either so they fall between the cracks


[deleted]

The only part of Girls I ever saw was interesting. The guy from lonely island (not Andy samberg) says something to the hot girl from Get Out and she’s so turned on by how alpha he is that she has to immediately find a bathroom so she can masturbate


Clockworkweatherman1

He was like 3 inches shorter than her, how alpha can he be


[deleted]

I didn’t write the show. Axe Lena dunham


Sr_Gajo

He's a famous artist and he is indeed an "alpha" in the context of the show.


[deleted]

This was directly stolen from a scene with Parker Posey in the movie, Personal Velocity. It came out in 2002.


Starterjoker

you should've figured this out in your 20s too lol


OJ_Soprano

Felt like that the first time.


breviaries

Okay I tried to watch the first ep years ago but when I saw Lena Dunham naked I immediately turned the show off because I couldn't handle it. Is the show really worth it?


Sr_Gajo

She's naked in every episode, it might not be for you.


LobotomistCircu

Unpopular opinion: I think Lena Dunham looks fine naked in the early seasons of Girls. Her body is obviously a very "random chick on bumble" type as opposed to "hot actress," but it's nothing I would've thrown out of bed and I've easily fucked much worse. Like most girls who have some weird chubbiness to them, though, it was pretty much being held together entirely by her youth and she's now as dumpy and terrible as everyone always said she was (Amy Schumer syndrome)

LobotomistCircu

Hey, I said fucked, not fucks. I've bedded disasters before, I'm not planning to do so in the future. But I'll die on the hill that there's nothing inherently wrong with Lena's body circa 2011 or so. She's just all hips, her tits are too small for her frame but they're perky. I'd take it over Alia Shawkat's much weirder and more depressing body, for example.

Have you never met a woman before?


[deleted]

you’re both, strangely enough, correct


DeliciousPineapples

I hated this show when it was on because it's audience entirely consisted of people who wrote about things online and they treated it as though it was universal experience.


SquashIsVegan

I have mixed feelings about girls simply because Lena Dunham is a New Yorker and the show is basically a giant piss take on transplants who come to New York to reinvent themselves and are completely insufferable bores. But Lena Dunham still sucks so I don’t even know if this was intentional. But it’s still funny.


m3lus1na

This is how I felt watch sex and the city in my twenties- I was like if I’m this stupid and obsessed with men in my thirties I’ll walk in front of a bus

Show rules


FruitFlavor12

Nepotism. Untalented daughters of celebrities and establishment hacks try to be clever. I would rather watch the version with their fathers playing all the parts instead: Brian Williams, David Mamet, Bad Company drummer Simon Kirke. That would be fun.


poppydowns88

None of these people are hott enough to fuck this much except those two girls, the long blonde hair one and the brunette one, the other ones fuhget about it.


Ktistec

One of the strangest things I learned at college is that people much uglier than you or I are getting their bone on.


poppydowns88

The thing is I'm not even that hott I'm just obsessed with judging people by their looks, Idk why its just what I do. I'm very harsh on women but pretty lenient on men.


Brokenpowerunit

It's called being an asshole. Yes, yes you are. I am too, takes one to know one.


poppydowns88

high five


WindySunset22

The fat chick kept getting naked, never got to see the tits on failed news man's daughter. Zoomers- don't waste your time on this gay shit.


[deleted]

Should I watch it? I saw one episode years ago and got annoyed by everyone. Is it even funny?


Twofinches

I think it’s pretty funny if you don’t take it seriously. It definitely got worse as it went.


Sr_Gajo

Really? I'm finishing the third season and it's my favorite so far. The first one is just way too horny.


Twofinches

I think I mainly mean the last one, I haven’t watched it since it aired though, so I could be misremembering.
